HyperTek · 05-14-2008, 01:29 PM

that quarter window reminds me of the bf109

*exitspeed* · 05-14-2008, 01:33 PM

A few variations on the headlight.

Just pipe dreams though.

Don't know what to make of it yet. Those headlights still haven't grown on me although I will admit that they look a lot better than the ones on the new Maxima.

snowmansent2hel · 05-14-2008, 05:47 PM

thank god they scratched those old headlights im feelin this version

silviaguy240 · 05-14-2008, 09:12 PM

i like the 08's the best....new one is meh. yea the c pillar is retro, but still looks like they're trying to put some GTR in it.

axiomatik · 05-15-2008, 07:25 AM

that refined headlight shape is certainly an improvement, but the indentation is still dumb looking. love the rear fenders. beltline seems to be a bit lower than the z33, but can't be certain from that pic.

It does, doesn't it. I think it might be the side windows that may be giving that impression. I do hope it is a little lower though.

Also, I wouldn't call the Z window design necessarily retro. It just took some cues from the timeless Z styling.

mark my words, i bet sideswipe, sunstreaker, or even silverstreak will show up in the new movie as one.

I hope so!

Sil80Dreams · 05-15-2008, 11:29 AM

I wish they would square out the rear end as on the z32. I'm tired of the eclipse type bubble butt haha

IStop4NoMan · 05-15-2008, 04:12 PM

i always wanted to "try" a 350z front on a g35 coupe... could be interesting.

Dcrprez · 05-15-2008, 04:24 PM

Dcrprez · 05-15-2008, 07:26 PM

i threw it up for the info, my bad

Baka Sama · 05-15-2008, 08:26 PM

Car looks hot. Wonder if it comes in pearl green with some BBS'

.

atom · 05-15-2008, 08:51 PM

Ok, so it looks more like a 240z but what about the weight? Piggy needs to go on a diet if it really wants to be a contemporary S30.

The test mule that was spied months and months ago was smaller all around. So hopefully we can expect the 370 will be lighter.

WanganRunner · 05-16-2008, 08:41 AM

The "new maxima" headlights are godawful, the 3.7L is a nice upgrade.

IStop4NoMan · 05-16-2008, 11:44 AM

hmm lightweight and more horses? im thinking a 13 flat quarter mile would be appropriate! its about time they stepped up the performance of the Z. i always thought of it as too much of a cruiser rather than a sports car. just .02

North of the 35K scale, still waiting for the new LIghtweight RWD Sports coupe.

*exitspeed* · 07-10-2008, 10:36 AM

New Vid of the test mule driving on the highway! Pretty short but hey, it's news.

COol

my pops wants to get a 350z... pretty cool for an old guy =p
They should just go in the way of the GTR and just drop the first part numbers and just call it the Z , i think Z is a big enogh name to sell on its own.

Gnnr · 07-10-2008, 12:03 PM

I think officially its called the "Z" by Nissan but the media is calling it the 370Z because of the motor to differentiate.

Mi Beardo es Loco · 07-10-2008, 12:28 PM

i like the g37 coupe WAY better than I like the Z. I just can't get past the front end. It's hiddeous.
